ROAD COMMISSIONER/TAX COLLECTOR/TOWN MANAGER REPORT:

The Town Manager gave the Treasurer’s Report as of March 30, 2012.

Tom Richmond told the Board that road sweeping was started today, and he had our crew follow the sweeper truck and collected the sand from sweeping in an effort to keep the cost of sweeping down.

Tom said he will be taking the road postings down soon, and will do it at the same time as neighboring towns.

NEW BUSINESS:

Road Program (2012): The Selectmen and the Town Manager went over the proposed contract and bid specifications for the 2012 paving program and made corrections. Tom Richmond said he had gotten an estimate of $15,000.00 from CPM Constructors to put 16” of gravel and then 6” of ground pavement on Old State Road. Tom said he had also asked Bob Noyes for a price, and Bob told him just the gravel would be about $15,000.00, so we should accept CPM’s estimate. Tom asked Selectmen if they want to accept CPM’s estimate at this time. No action taken.

The Town Manager gave a slide presentation on the roads in town that need work, and there was discussion on what work is needed on each road.
